songs not played after their album's tour?

help me out here. this is from memory so i may well overlook some.

parade/around the world in a day:
mountains, christopher tracy's parade, new position, life can be so nice, around the world in a day

sign of the times:
play in the sunshine
hot thing

lovesexy:
everything apart from anna stesia and alphabet street

diamonds & pearls:
everything apart from title track, gett off, strollin, insatiable and cream.

love symbol:
everything apart from 7. sexy mf intro has been played but not the whole song (as far as i know)

come/gold experience/the dawn:
everything apart from beautiful girl, shhh and dolphin

emancipation:
he's played two or three songs from this (i think usually acoustically) since the jam of the year tour. i cant remember exactly what, i think one kiss at a time and somebody's somebody maybe? other than that, nothing from emancipation has been played live. most of it wasnt even played on the jam of the year tour

Off the top of my head:

Money Don't Matter 2 Night
3 Chains O' Gold
The Love We Make
Come On

Have all been played from 2000 onwards and others have featured in soundchecks attended by NPGMC members.

'Come On' featured as an encore during the 'Hit and Run' and 'Celebration' tours of 2000. '3 Chains O' Gold' (and an instrumental 'And God Created Woman') was added in June for the 'Celebration' tour setlist.

'The Love We Make' was played at The Fillmore, San Francisco on 15 February 2004.

(Regarding the latter, this has always seemed to me to be a song which Prince has slept on (perhaps deliberately) like 'Joy In Repetition'. It has only been in recent years that he has made 'Joy In Repetition' a live highlight for many people. I'm sure he could give 'The Love We Make' similar treatment at some point).

Newpower Soul Music Festival Tour

Hanns-Martin-Schleyer Halle, Stuttgart

26th December 1998

COMPUTER BLUE (Including ARE YOU GONNA GO MY WAY?)

Langbleu, were you aware of this concert? If so,do you know if there were any vocals to it? Either way,I'd love to hear it!

Also, wasn't it played once in Vegas last year?


Yes, there are vocals (I was wrong in my statement above, apologies) :

"Stuttgart, are you ready?

I want to see you go crazy ... 2, 1, 2, come on ... (spoken)

Where is my love life?
Where can it be?
There's something something wrong with the machinery

Where is my baby?
Where has she gone?
Somebody please please tell me what the hell is wrong

'Til I find the righteous one
Computer blue
What I really wanna know is ...
Are you gonna go my way?

(Instrumental 'Father's song theme and guitar impro)

Stuttgart, Stuttgart"

It isn't really 'Are U gonna go my way?" - he just rounds off the single chorus with lyric and melody line from the song.

I'll need to look into Vegas performances more ...
